Chameleon malthe, Giinth. Proc. Zool, Soc. 1879, p. 148, pl. xi. 
Casque feebly elevated, posterior border angular ; a feebly marked 
parietal crest ; the distance between the commissure of the mouth 
and the extremity of the snout a little less than the length of the 
mouth ; lateral crest entirely surrounding the casque, feeble behind, 
armed with large conical tubercles on the canthus rostralis and the 
rostral appendage ; snout of male produced in a rather elongate 
tubercular process, directed forwards, channelled above and below ; 
upper head-seales very unequal in size, the largest on the snout; a 
large occipital dermal flap, not even emarginate medially, covered 
with unequal-sized small convex tubercles. Body and limbs covered 
with very small granules, intermixed with very feebly enlarged round 
tubercles ; a series of long pointed spine-like tubercles forms a dorsal 
crest, which is continued, though much less developed, on the tail; 
no gular nor ventral crest; throat finely granulate, with a few scat- 
tered small conical tubercles. No tarsal process. Tail alittle longer 
than head and body. Upper lip white; nape (under the dermal 
flap) deep black.
